Multi-Sector Barcode Verification Many application-specific labels have more than one barcode symbol printed on them, such as shipping labels, blister packs, etc. The LVS-95XX software has a special feature design (sold separately) allowing the user to verify multiple barcode symbols in the field of view simultaneously. It is highly recommended when using the multi-barcode verification feature that all barcode symbologies use the same application standard. Figure 1 shows an example of a label having multiple barcode symbols of different symbologies (sectors #3 and #4 are linear symbols while sectors #1 and #2 are 2-dimensional symbols) with multi-sector verification activated.

Multi-Barcode Verification is to be used as a process control tool only and not for primary verification of barcodes.

Multi-Barcode Verification is not a standard LVS-95XX feature and is priced separately. Contact Omron Microscan or an Omron Microscan distributor for pricing information.

Figure 1: Label with multiple barcode symbols of different symbologies



Activate Multi-Sector Barcode Verification To activate the multi-sector barcode verification feature for your LVS-95XX system, follow the steps below. Note that activation requires an 8-digit code received from Omron Microscan or an Omron Microscan distributor.

1. Log on to the LVS-95XX and click the “Setup” tab.

2. Within the “Optional features” section, click the “Optional Features Activation” button (Figure 2). The“LVS-95XX feature list” appears (Figure 3).

Figure 2: “Optional Features Activation” button

3. Next to “Custom applications (multi-sector),” click “not available (click here to enter activation code).” The“Enter Activation Code” window appears (Figure 4). Enter the 8-digit activation code received fromOmron Microscan or an Omron Microscan distributor and then click “Ok.”

Figure 4: Enter Activation Code window

4. The Multi-Barcode Verification feature is now active (Figure 5).

Figure 5: The “activated” status indicates that Multi-Barcode Verification is active



Multi-Sector Barcode Template Set-up The first time multiple sector verification is used, it is necessary to create and save a reference template. The reference template contains the multiple grading sectors in locations that match the locations of the barcodes on the label when the label is in the field of view. The use of a template prevents repetitive drawing/redrawing of each sector for each label every time a label is placed in the field of view. The reference template is automatically saved with the user-provided name; thus, the reference name chosen should have meaning (i.e. correspond to a production run, etc.). Future production runs can use the reference template by simply choosing the “select an existing format” option when using the multiple sector verification feature. To verify multi-barcode symbols, follow the steps below:

1. Log on to the LVS-95XX.

2. Click the “Setup” tab and choose “Multiple sectors verification” within the “Optional features” section (Figure 6).

Figure 6: Multiple sectors verification option

3. Select either “Create a new format” or “Select an existing format” and click “Ok” (Figure 7).

Choose “Create a new format” when performing Multiple Sector Verification for the first time as no default templates exist.

Figure 7: Select one of the above options

4. If you selected “Create a New Format,” enter the name of the new format in the text field and then click “Ok” (Figure 8). If you choose to “Select an existing format,” skip step 4 and proceed to step 5.

Figure 8: Enter the name of the new format



A. Choose the appropriate application standards for the barcode symbologies on the label and click “Ok” to proceed to the “Grading” Tab to complete the setup (Figure 9).

Figure 9: Choose an application standard

B. Place the multi-barcode label into the field of view and follow the steps below:

To create sector #1, draw a box around one of the barcode symbols, leaving enough space for the quiet zones. The software automatically assigns an ID number to the sector.

To create sector #2, press and hold the “Shift” keyboard button while drawing the box around the second barcode symbol. Release the “Shift” key when complete. The software automatically assigns this new sector with another ID number.

To create additional sectors, repeat the previous step (step ii) for the remaining barcode symbols.

Proceed to the “Multi-sector Barcode Verification Steps” section. 5. If you chose “Select an Existing Format” (from step #3 above), you have the option to “start” grading

labels, “edit” the chosen template, or “delete” the chosen template (Figure 10).

Select “Start” to begin grading barcode symbols on labels and proceed to the “Multi-sector Barcode Verification Steps” section of this appendix. Modifying sectors is not possible in this mode.

Select “Edit” to make changes (add, delete, or redraw sectors) from the chosen template and go to the “Additional Features” > “Modify (Edit) Existing Format Templates” section of this appendix.

Select “Delete” to delete the chosen template permanently.

Figure 10: Select “Start,” Edit,” or “Delete”



Multi-Sector Barcode Verification Steps 6. From the “Setup” tab, choose “Multiple sectors verification” within the “Optional features” section.

7. Choose “Select an Existing Format” and select the template then click Ok.

8. Select “Start” and click Ok.

9. Place the label that matched the pre-configured template on the glass.

10. Align the label so that all the barcode symbols fall within their respective pre-configured sectors. The system will verify each sector in succession once the system no longer detects motion of the label on the glass if using Automatic Grading mode otherwise click “Click to grade”.

Note: If the pre-configured sectors are not large enough to allow for quiet zones, quiet zone failures will result.

Figure 11: View of multiple sectors



Additional Features Modify (Edit) Existing Format Templates 11. From the “Setup” tab choose “Multiple sectors verification” within the “Optional features” section.

12. Choose to “Select an Existing Format” and select the template.

13. Select “Edit.”

14. Click on the sector number you wish to modify. This selects the sector for modification. It might take some time as the system attempts to verify all currently existing sectors automatically. Wait for the sector outline to become bold.

Delete the sector by pressing the “Delete” keyboard button.

Redraw the sector as desired. Do not hold the “Shift” key as it will add a new sector reordering the sector count.

Add a new sector by pressing and holding the “Shift” key while drawing the box around the next barcode symbol. Release the “Shift” key when complete. The software automatically assigns this new sector with another ID number.

IMPORTANT: It is only possible to modify (add, delete, re-draw) sectors for a given template in “Edit” mode. It is not possible to change application standards. If the application standard originally chosen is incorrect, delete the template and begin again.

Print a Single-Sector Verification Report Generate a Single-Sector Verification Report by first highlighting the desired sector. To highlight a sector (i.e. make the sector bold), click on the sector. The individual parameter grades appear on the screen. Click “Print” to send the Single-Sector Verification Report to the default printer.

Print a Multiple-Sector Verification Report Generate a Multiple-Sector Verification Report for ALL sectors by pressing and holding the “Shift” keyboard button while clicking “Print” simultaneously. This report may take a few moments if a large amount of data is involved.

It is not possible to get a Multiple-Sector Verification Report that contains the individual parameter grades for each individual sector.



Change Verification Report to One-Column Format The default format of the LVS-95XX Verification Report is to two columns and fits properly on letter or A4 size paper. However, the layout of a Verification Report can be changed so that data displays in a one-column format and prints properly when using a narrow printer, such as a 3” or 4” width printer. The designated printer must have a Windows® compatible driver. To enable single-column reports, follow the steps below:


Enter lvs (in uppercase or lowercase letters) in the “Operator ID” field.

Enter the password provided by Omron Microscan technical support.

Click the “OK” button. You are now logged on to the LVS-95XX system.

16. Click the “Archive” tab.

17. Enter the following command in the “Query” text box located at the bottom of the screen. Letters are notcase sensitive.

update settings set settingvalue = “1” where settingname = “singlecolumn”

Figure 12: Enter the following command: update settings set settingvalue = “1” where settingname = “singlecolumn”

18. Click the “Execute query” button.

An “Operation Successful” message appears if the operation is successful (Figure 13). Figure 15 isan example of a single column format printout.

A “Query Error” message appears if the operation is unsuccessful (see example in Figure 14).

If an error occurs, attempt to resolve the error by clicking “OK” and then re-entering the command in the “Query” text box (as identified in step 3 above) ensuring the command text is entered correctly. Then, click the “Execute query” button. If you copied and pasted the query from this document, check the quotation marks. If they are not identical (i.e. facing different directions), edit them and try the query again. If the error message returns, contact Omron Microscan or an Omron Microscan distributor for resolution assistance.

update settings set settingvalue = “-1” where settingname = “IncludePrintStructure”

Figure 24: Enter the following command in the “Query” text box: update settings set settingvalue = “-1” where settingname = “IncludePrintStructure”


An “Operation Successful” message appears if the operation is successful (Figure 25). A “Query Error” message appears if the operation is unsuccessful (see example in Figure 26).



32. The “Data Structure Analysis Report” will not appear on the “Verification Report.”

Important: To include the “Data Structure Analysis Report” on the “Verification Report,” enter either “0” or “1” in the “Query” text box.

IncludePrintStructure=0 (Default) and IncludePrintStructure=1 are the same in that a Structure table is added to the bottom of the “Verification Report” when using either command.

update settings set settingvalue = “0” where settingname = “IncludePrintStructure” or update settings set settingvalue = “1” where settingname = “IncludePrintStructure”

Figure 25 Figure 26



IncludePrintStructure – New Functions Software version 3.0.9kk includes changes to the IncludePrintStructure and added functionality of the SeparateDecodedText parameter.

New Function = IncludePrintStructure IncludePrintStructure=0 (Default) and IncludePrintStructure=1 are the same in that a Structure table is added to the bottom of the LVS-95XX report when using either command.

To separate the GS1 AI data out of the decoded text, use the following commands:

IncludePrintStructure=2 displays the decoded text as GS1 AI in the main table in in rows based on the number of AIs present, but does not include a Structure table at the bottom of the report.

IncludePrintStructure=3 displays the decoded text as GS1 AI in the main table in rows based on the number of AIs present and includes a separate Structure table at the bottom of the report.

New Parameter = SeparateDecodedText The SeparateDecodedText feature was added to allow for long character strings and large amounts of data that did not print well on the page. Now the user can move the decoded text into a separate table at the top of the report.

To separate the decoded text, use the following commands:

SeperateDecodedText=0 (Default) (OFF) results in the decoded text being displayed in the main table.

SeperateDecodedText=1 (ON) results in the decoded text being displayed in a separate table at the top of the report.

o When IncludePrintStructure=2 or IncludePrintStructure=3 are used with the SeparateDecodedText=1 (On), the GS1 AI structure does not work. The GS1 AI structure is displayed as one line of decoded text in the Decoded Text Table.

o When the SeparateDecodedText=1 (On), the IncludePrintStructure=1 and IncludePrintStructure=3 reports both have a Structure Table at the bottom of the report and decoded text is displayed in a separate table.

o When the SeparateDecodedText=1 (On), the IncludePrintStructure=2 produces a report with a separate decoded Text table, but does not have a Structure Table.

Custom Reports

Important note about the use of the GS1 1D and 2D report templates: The GS1 1D and 2D report templates may be used by any organization or company as part of a quality program while respecting the Copyright of the GS1 logo (or any heading or text that imply actual GS1 endorsement (subject to local licensing agreements such as accreditation programs, which may allow exceptions).

Important note about the Custom Report feature: Microsoft® Word must be installed on the computer running the LVS-95XX software to use the Custom Report feature. The LVS-95XX software is compatible with Microsoft Word version 97 through 2010. The default templates are in Word 1997 – 2003 document format (.doc) and can be saved in the higher version document format (.docx).

The LVS-95XX software populates a custom report by searching the document template for parameter names encased in curly brackets; for example, {overall grade}. It then substitutes the verification data for the current barcode in place of the associated parameter name. This process is similar to a mail merge. Valid parameter names (along with sample verification data) are listed in the table below.

During LVS-95XX software installation, a default Barcode Verification Template as defined by GS1 General Specifications is stored in one of the following locations:

Windows XP- C:\Program Files\I9500\CustomReportTemplates

Windows 7 and 10 - C:\Users\Public\LVS-95xx\CustomReportTemplates

The LVS-95XX Series offers two custom reports: GS1 1D Report.doc

GS1 2D Report.doc

The two reports listed above appear for new system installations of LVS-95XX software version 3.0.9. If an LVS-95XX system is being upgraded from a previous software version to version 3.0.9, the above two reports appear, along with a third report entitled GS1 Report.doc. The GS1 Report.doc is a copy of the GS1 1D Report.doc and contains the same data; thus, you can review the GS1 1D Report.doc or GS1 Report.doc to review the 1D report data.

Add or remove parameters and reformat the documents as desired. It is good practice, to make a copy of the default template, modify the copy, and rename the new document leaving the default template unaltered. The naming convention of a custom template determines the Application Standard used in grading symbols; either GS1 General Specifications or ISO 15415/15416. Custom templates with names that begin with GS1 (e.g. GS1 1D Report.doc) use the GS1 General Specifications Application Standards where custom templates with names that do not begin with GS1 use ISO 15415/15416 Application Standards.

Important note about custom template file names: If the file name begins with “GS1” the LVS-95XX software will apply GS1 General Specifications Application Standard rules to barcode verification otherwise ISO 15415/15416 Application Standard rules apply to barcode verification.

The user-created custom templates will be available for use in the LVS-95XX software only after the LVS-95XX software has been completely closed (returning to the “Welcome” screen is insufficient). Custom templates are located with the Application Standards in the Application standards drop-down box on the “Setup” tab (Figure 38): Click “Configure available standards” and ensure a check mark “√” and “yes” are selected in the “Available column” of the Application Standards window.

Decimal Grading The LVS-95XX software uses decimal grading by default for 2D matrix symbols. Decimal grading provides higher precision than ISO 15415 grading. ISO 15415 grading provides only five possible grades (0, 1, 2, 3, and 4). Decimal grading uses the tenths decimal place in combination with the published ISO 15415 parameter value range to provide higher precision in grading symbols. Using Symbol Contrast as an example, ISO 15415 provides the following grading table.

SC = Symbol Contrast Grade

>= 70% 4

>= 55% 3

>= 40% 2

>= 20% 1

< 20% 0

As shown in the above ISO table an 85% contrast results in a grade of 4. A 70% contrast results in a grade of 4 as well. According to the table, a 69.99% contrast receives a grade of 3. The integer grading provided by ISO 15415 does not distinguish well between a good solid 4 (85%) and a weak 4 (70%). ISO 15415 integer grading does not allow the user to see when a number grade is on the border of falling to a lower integer grade. More specifically, the ISO grading scale does not allow a user to easily see symbol quality is waning and will soon drop a full grade level. A user must be familiar with the actual parameter values (and monitor them individually) to know if the symbol is on the border of a lower grade or sitting solidly at the assigned grade.

Omron Microscan has improved the ISO 15415 chart above by extrapolating the parameter values to assign grades using decimals thereby providing greater grading precision. The Omron Microscan grading should be rounded down to the next lowest integer to return to strict ISO 15415 grading. In the Omron Microscan grading chart below, an 85% contrast is assigned a 4.0 (A) just like the ISO 15415 grading chart. However, the 65% contrast is assigned a grade of 3.7. It is very apparent that a 3.7 or 65% contrast is not the same as a 3.0 or 55%. Convert the Omron Microscan grade to strict ISO 15415 grading by rounding the Omron Microscan grade down to the lower whole number; in this case 3.7 rounds down to 3. The chart below is not complete but provides the bases of the Omron Microscan grading in comparison to strict ISO grading showing the conversion.

SC = Symbol Contrast Omron Microscan Grade

GS1/ISO 15415 Grade

85% 4.0 4

80% 4.0 4

75% 4.0 4

70% 4.0 4

65% 3.7 3

60% 3.3 3

55% 3.0 3

50% 2.7 2

0% 0.0 0.0



Omron Microscan grading is provided because Omron Microscan believes it improves on the ISO 15415 grading system by providing higher precision and avoids sudden grade jumps. By way of analogy, the ISO system is like a car whose speedometer provides speed readings in increments of 10 mph increments. The speedometer tells the user they are moving 0 mph, 10 mph, 20 mph, 30 mph, or 40 mph. By using the decimal, the Omron Microscan speedometer gives the user 1 mph increments between the major increments of 0, 10, 20, 30, and 40 mph. Note that Letter Grades are no longer reported in Omron Microscan LVS-95xx v. 4.3 and newer software, as inconsistencies in the letter grading scale exist between ISO 15415 and ISO 15416:2016, and letter grading is optional (informative) in the ISO 15415/15416 standards.

Disable Decimal Grading Disable decimal grading by following the steps below.


133. Enter the following command in the “Query” text box located at the bottom of the screen. Letters arenot case sensitive.

To disable decimal grading, enter: update settings set settingvalue = “0” where settingname =“DecimalGrading”

Figure 67: Enter the following command to disable decimal grading: update settings set settingvalue = “0” where settingname = “DecimalGrading”

To enable decimal grading, enter: update settings set settingvalue = “1” where settingname =“DecimalGrading”

Figure 68: Enter the following command to enable decimal grading: update settings set settingvalue = “1” where settingname = “DecimalGrading”



Active Directory The LVS-95XX software integrates with Microsoft® Active Directory to manage operator permissions. LVS-95XX operators are granted operator privileges based on Microsoft® authentication and LVS-95XX permissions are assigned based on group membership in Omron Microscan-specific Active Directory groups. Production operators will see no change in the user interface or operation of the LVS-95XX software when Active Directory permissions are enabled.

When Active Directory (AD) is enabled on each start of the LVS-95XX software, the LVS-95XX system will connect over the network to the specified Microsoft® AD domain controller. The LVS-95XX system will update the database Operators table to contain the user names and permissions as defined in the Active Directory. The LVS-95XX users created are in the AD Group specified in the “AD LVS All Users Group” configuration setting (see next section for more information).

When Active Directory is enabled, user passwords, password expiration dates, and failed password counts are not stored locally in the LVS-95XX database. Microsoft® Active Directory policies will manage user password restrictions and policies. When a user enters his/her user name and password in the LVS-95XX system, the credentials are verified with the current user name and password in the AD. The “Operator Administration” screen (see below) in the LVS-95XX system can be used to view the current users and their permissions, but the “Add new operator,” “Change this operator,” and “Delete this operator” buttons are disabled. When users are disabled or deleted from AD, their access to the LVS-95XX system login is immediately disabled even if the LVS-95XX system has not been restarted.

The default administrator account (admin) is a special, unique login. It is not managed in AD and remains in the local LVS-95XX system database. All new installations create a default administrator user with the User Name and Password set to admin. The admin user password is stored in the local LVS-95XX system database to allow access to the system in case there is a network outage. This provides the option of operating the LVS-95XX system without Active Directory user authentication. With Active Directory enabled, the admin user is the only user that can be modified using the LVS-95XX system Operator Administration interface. The admin user name and password can be changed and deleted if desired; however, if the admin user name is changed or deleted and the LVS-95XX system loses connection to the Active Directory Server or Active Directory is disabled, then no user will exist who has access to enable Active Directory or manage users in a standalone mode.

Active Directory control of LVS-95XX system users provides a single, secure record of authentication and authorization. Control of all AD changes is managed through AD Group policy and ownership.



Enable Active Directory and Manage Operator Permissions You must establish the Microsoft® AD required groups before completing the steps below. Below is an example of a Microsoft® AD environment matching the Omron Microscan AD configuration settings shown in the steps below. Your entries may be different depending on your AD environment and the group names you choose.
